A Billion Here Today...Another Billion Tomorrow
In 2020, the average employee and small business owner lost ground with lockdowns and various mandates. On the contrary, one group not only didn’t suffer during the pandemic, their net worth saw record growth. Here are just a few of the increases:
Elon Musk - $140 billion = Total: $195 billion
Jeff Bezos - $70 billion = Total: $185 billion
Bill Gates - $18 billion = Total: $131 billion
Mark Zuckerberg - $26 billion = Total: $105 billion
Dan Gilbert - $28 billion = Total: $35 billion
I just did a calculation; if those in the $100 billion brackets spent a million dollars a day, they would have to live 273 years to deplete their net worth.
Most of us have no idea what it is like to live in the rarefied air of billionaire heaven. I suppose after a billion here and a billion there, it all becomes meaningless.
We know for sure that for this group, the pandemic is just so good for business.
Shit a brick!
They can still get Covid-19 and all its Variants. They can still get many types of Cancer. They can still even get run over by a Bus. So while they would "impossibly" live to such a ripe old age spending "daily" a dream amount, they are still vulnerable to Death. Which negates their Wealth. No diff to you or me!!!
